Book Review: The Write Stuff by Tiffany King

Twenty-two-year-old historical romance writer Nicole Blake, or N.S. Blake to her readers, hasn't taken an official poll, mind you, but she is convinced she may be the only romance author on the planet who is still a card-carrying member of the virgin club.Not that she hasn't tried to end her membership. Life just keeps finding pesky ways to interfere. With no prospects on the horizon, Nicole begins to feel like the closest she will ever get to experiencing a man is within her own stories.

Opportunity presents itself in the form of hot-as-sin-on-a-lollipop-stick bartender/premed student Alec Petropoulos, who agrees to be the cover model for her upcoming book. Sparks fly instantly between them, and Nicole begins to entertain the possibility that she's finally found the right guy to hand over her tattered V-card. Alec has all the makings for a perfect one-night-stand candidate except, much to Nicole's surprise, he seems to be the only man in existence not interested in bagging a virgin.

Stuck between a rock and a stubborn male, what's a virgin to do? Seduce him, of course. How hard could it be? If it works for the characters in her stories, why wouldn't it work for her? After all, what happens under the cover…stays under the cover.

Many of you don't know this but I've been in a book slump for 2 months, that's why y'all haven't seen me around the blog lately. My grandma was hospitalized and it hasn't been easy. But now that's she's recovering I have a little time to read. AND I knew, I just knew The Write Stuff was going to be one of those I-love-this-book-so much-I-never want-it-to-end-type. And that's exactly what happened.

Nicole is a self published author who takes us on a journey of self discovery and I loved it. She first starts off as this shy girl who doesn't really get out much but little by little her shell starts to crack with the help of this gorgeous guy who I just wanted to lick from head to toe. Alec helped Nikki grow in ways that boosted her confidence and I was so happy for her. Sometimes a stranger helps you in ways you never saw coming and I think it's great that she was honest and true to herself the whole time.

What I loved most about The Write Stuff is how I felt like I was in an authors brain, I mean Tiffany King portrayed every scene with such raw honesty that you couldn't help but feel like you were apart of something amazing. Now I just want to hang around a bunch of authors and cover models, Thanks for that Tiffany.

Oh I also loved the friendship between Nikki and her best friend Olivia. Olivia made me laugh with the ways she never held back, I mean . . .

"How was I supposed to know you'd show up looking life one of those bad Wal-Mart customer pictures people post on Facebook? Believe me, if I would have known that was the look you were going for, I would have shielded the eyes of the kids on the beach."

If you ever wanted to go behind the scenes with authors and their brain, this is the book for you. Or if you ever wanted to fall in love with a sexy cover model, this is the book for you. And if you just want to read a good book that will make you laugh and swoon, this is definitely the book for you.
